Hope everything goes well tomorrow-- look forward to hearing from you!

Everyone is different. My surgery was 6pm and by 6am next day I was up and walking. Not using any pain meds. That medication drove me crazy. It has been a week today for me and I am back to work. I am not doing any bending or lifting because I just want to get better fast. Make sure you have your broth and Water all the time. Popcicles help to change it. Protein is a must. I lost 20 pounds since I started with the diet

@emirn1 @Emileana thanks ladies and I will definitely let you guys know how it goes. I have to collect myself because the fear is taking over.

I was a basket case the night before my surgery. But try to keep focused on your why. It's over before you know it and you're onto your new journey and life. And honestly this is worth every second of discomfort I have felt and am feeling. I have never been happier in life because I have so much hope for what my future holds!

The gas pain isn't the best but I am doing pretty good other then that. Trying to make sure I eat enough and drink enough. But feeling very very happy with how things are going. Best decision I ever made!

Yes, gas pains are deff a not fun! My belly is still bloated but slowly it is coming out. Are you taking Gas X? I am taking it and it seems to help.

Sucks it makes you nauseous. I have been walking, will try the heating pad. I have also heard laying on your left side helps. I tried it in the hospital and it seemed to work for me.

I might try that as well though that's where I have a bulk of my pain is on my left side of my tummy. I know I have passed a lot of the gas already so hopefully it doesn't take too much longer for the rest to pass
